Brief description of Akselera’s role, deliverables and results
Akselera was responsible for the design and realization of Altia’s SOR solution from the content, process, and SAP points of view. In addition, we made a solution rollout for abroad taking care of local requirements. As a result of the SOR initiative, Altia´s receivables management efficiency and quality can be improved.
